Mid/Senior Full-Stack Engineer

London, England, GB

Yhangry (W22) is a marketplace for private chefs.

Yhangry is like Airbnb, but for finding a chef to cook for an event: Their birthday, a hen party or a family Christmas gathering.

We’re changing the lives of chefs:

  1. Chefs earn 3x more than working in a restaurant, whilst working fewer hours. E.g. Chefs working 60 hours per week can maintain the same income by just doing 1-2 private dining events per week.
  2. Chefs set their own prices, create their own menus - they get to cook what they love.

We are backed by Y Combinator (just like Airbnb, Coinbase, and other unicorns) and featured on Dragons’ Den.

Why this is a great time to join?

  • 📈 We grew 8x in the past 2 years.
  • 💰 We raised $4m in funding from institutional and angel investors.
  • 🔥 We have hit breakeven which is extremely strong for a high growth, early stage startup.
  • 💪We are a small but mighty team 5 people based in London: You’ll be working closely with the founders and engineers and have a lot of ownership.
  • 🌍 We are about to expand internationally: You’ll be part of launching yhangry in our first city in the US and shape our expansion playbook for the many cities to come.
  • 🦄 We are looking for amazing A players to join our rockstar team on this exciting journey
